    Let's draft a guy based on his appearance!

    This is the guy...I have found him...I just read some info on him. This guy would be PERFECT for the 3-4 OLB position...

    He is a guy that could get some pressure on the QB like a Merriman, Ware or Wimbley.

    I want this guy...he is the one I want...no question about it.

    Too bad you have no say in who our FO chooses in the upcoming draft.

    Gholston looks like he can help out and is freakishly athletic, but unless he leaves school early and dominates at the combine, he shouldn't go until late in the 2nd round...but if he runs a fast 40, has a lot of bench reps, and all of that at the combine, he could turn himself into a mid first rounder...just like DeMarcus Ware.

    I dont know about that. If we actually win a couple games and end up with a top 10 pick, Id be surprised if we dont take him.

    Mcfadden then trade the two seconds we will have for either Vilma or Pennington to the first round for this guy, Very wishful thinking

    sounds good, either him or Groves. then find a good OG in the 3rd and get a project NT like Raji or Shirly in the 4th.

    man, i?m starting to dream...

    Are you kidding me? He's already being considered a near lock for the top 15 assuming he declares. He grades out very comparable to Merriman. He's got unmatched measurables, he's a freakish athlete, infinite potential, and has immense productions, already logging 10 sacks this year..assuming he declares (likely will) he will give Calais Campbell a run for his money as the number 2 DE coming out.

    ahhh its nice to see my thread getting a little action! heh. gholston really does appear to be a good fit. he's a great athlete, excellent pass rusher, and intimidating presence (something we sorely lack right now).

    I'd rather take McFadden or just trade down.....but when do you think this guy will go? If we can trade down and get him that would be cool.

    You guys really don't think Vilma can get us a early twenties pick???? I still do, the guy had preventive surgery. His value should still be top flight, especially to a team that wants to win now and needs a MLB. Maybe a team like the Giants or Vikings or Broncos????

    tough to say it really depends how bad that knee injury is... but i was thinkin the Bengals second round pick which will be low they are desperate for defense and they run the 4-3 where vilma thrives.

    Gholston is more complete, but Groves is the better pure pass rusher when he's healthy.

    Gholston is the guy I want.

    Gholston made a lot of money today against Michigan.

    yeah, i?m watching the game right now. he let Jake Long look like adrian clake. he shows very good moves, power and quickness.but i also see him take of a lot of plays, too.
